Good morning. Yesterday S woke up with a fever, to go along with her cough and runny nose so I kept her home from school. I messaged her doc and got her tested for covid, negative. Midway through the day she started complaining about ear pain so after supper I took her to acute care and we got antibiotics for an EI. Poor kid can’t catch a break. Of course I had plans to run a bunch of errands for the shower yesterday so that didn’t happen. I was able to go to target in the evening so all that is left is getting last minute groceries either this afternoon or tomorrow morning. I’m working today. Cross all your fingers and toes that everyone is healthy before next Friday. Today is also DH’s bday so I’ll stop and grab him cupcakes on the way home from work.

We have dance and tennis this morning and then our town is having a scavenger hunt. It's a driving one, and it ends at the beach for a bonfire. Should be fun!

C's bday party is today. Should be interesting with both families, especially since his hates me. I'm sure they'll have some comments on the redecorating I've done. MIL unfriended my mom on Facebook because she wouldn't talk me out of divorcing.

Safe travels today joelies. I hope things go as smoothly as they can with your sister and she tones it down. I hope you have a nice time with your mom and brother and actually get to grieve with them like you should instead of dealing with your sister's crap.

I work this weekend but because of the meds I'm on from the allergic reaction I can't drive so it's just phone appointments. Really that's a godsend because I won't have to deal with the BS that is usually inherent in that job. And they still haven't processed all the paperwork for my promotion which has me ticked with them right now. Plus it was great to get extra sleep because I was up half the night Thursday with shallow breathing.

My mom is driving in today. We thought she should fly because that’s 10+ hours by herself, but whatever. So we’re cleaning this morning. We have a karate party this afternoon, then the neighbor kid is coming over for a few hours to give her parents a little break. I need to figure out something they can do so they don’t destroy the clean house.

Morning! guster your town sounds fun! wineallthetime wow to your ex mil. She’s really….something. I hope C’s party goes well! Glad you’ll have your family there to be a buffer. My parents are coming today and just staying 1 night. They are bringing one of my nieces. So I’ve been tidying up and doing laundry. Meanwhile S keeps asking for “more” every 5 seconds. But she can’t seem to tell me what she wants more of. And she seems quite perturbed that I can’t figure it out.

You all may recall that MIL hates animals, ESPECIALLY snakes. We had a little Gardner snake in the backyard and she freaked out saying she'd never heard of anyone having a snake in the yard and we needed to call animal control.
WELL, coincidentally C picked a reptile themed party. I'm running to the store to get more snakes. Kicking myself for not ordering the big realistic one from Amazon. Sorry, MIL, it's what the kid wants!

lfig before Cass started speaking her favorite sign was "more." She was very aggressive about it and it always pertained to food. 😆

Happy weekend! Girls seem to be sick again and it's groundhogs day, but j got his first dose this morning! We all went for the occasion and then got Starbucks and took it to the park behind our old apartment, which was pretty nostalgic. Now mh and j are at his last baseball game and then just relaxing.
I need to plan some birthday party events for the kids, they are coming up quick! Not that we had control, but late November birthdays kind of suck for party options🙄.

C is still working overnights so I took the kids to Knott’s. I snagged some Disneyland reservations for tomorrow so that’s where I will keep the kids entertained tomorrow.

It’s been crickets around here as far as messaging and outreach, so I called Vandy to see if they were doing shots and got M scheduled for 2 Saturdays from today. They start giving them out to 5-12 year olds Monday. They didn’t have any times that work for us until then.

So yesterday evening I sent a message on the Gap website and the carrier website where they wanted feedback. Today I get a “out for delivery” text. Lol we’ll see if it actually comes and to the right address.
My OshKosh order said it was shipped one day, then a day or so later it said delayed. When I went to look at tracking- it just says your order is processing. 🙄 I’m wondering if they gave it to the same carrier but haven’t updated the tracking.

Do you have CVS or Walgreens there? A lot of friends have found appointments there, but have then found openings elsewhere through pop up clinics or pediatricians. Our school system had clinics yesterday and today, but I don't think they had too many appointments. If I hadn't found something quickly, I would have looked further away and driven to areas with lower demand.

The scavenger hunt is not today. It's tomorrow. We didn't learn that until we got to the starting point and we were the only people there. I checked the email and I thought today was 7th-- whoops! We went to the library, got coffee, and met a classmate of Charlie's at the playground. Not a bad day! I made the most amazingly delicious sweet and spicy cauliflower "wings" for dinner. I think they'd be a great substitute for chicken on a wedge. Next time!!

MH won free tickets in the box seats to The Eagles so we're going tonight. We saw them a few years back and they were great.
